Ingredients

500 g mushrooms button or cup, sliced
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp sugar
2 tsp rice wine vinegar
½ tsp sesame oil
1 clove garlic grated or minced
1 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tsp cornflour
1 tbsp water
1 avocado sliced
1 yellow capsicum (pepper) sliced
1 carrot grated
4 rice paper sheets
sriracha (optional)
kewpie mayo (optional)

Method

To make the sauce, add the soy, sugar, vinegar, garlic and sesame oil to a pan over medium heat and simmer for a minute or so until the sugar has dissolved
Add in your mushrooms and allow that to cook, stirring occasionally for a couple of minutes until the mushrooms have softened and the sauce has thickened slightly
Make a slurry by mixing the cornflour into the water until it is fully incorporated with no lumps
Pour the slurry into the mushrooms and quickly mix it in then stir until the sauce becomes thick and glossy
Sprinkle over the sesame seeds and toss until they fully coat the mushrooms then turn off the heat and set aside until needed
Working one at a time, rinse your rice paper roll under water until just moistened on both sides then lay out onto a clean cutting board. If you'd prefer to use a plate, rub it lightly with a splash of sesame oil to prevent the rice paper from sticking to it
Lay your veggies onto the rice paper in any order you like. This recipe did mushrooms, avocado, capsicum, carrot then sauces, which provides the easiest assembly to roll
To roll, begin by folding both sides over towards the middle, then repeat with one of the longer edges. Once you have 3 sides sealed, tuck the last edge tightly over the filling and roll it up to form a nicely sealed rice paper roll
Repeat with the remaining rolls and enjoy!
